"Format" section needs work[edit]

The "Format" section is a sterling attempt to explain this game show but unfortunately fails. Some of it doesn't make sense at all (for instance "if the fifth £1,000 question is answered the question, the answerer of that question cash traps themselves.") and some of it seems to assume that the reader understands the terminology (for instance "when a contestant gets a buzzer question right, they get to go head-to-head with another." what is a "buzzer question"?) I'd WP:BB but being one of those unable to make head or tail of the show's Byzantine rules I'm unable. Tonywalton ^Talk 21:17, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just fixed the format section up a little bit, but I can tell it still needs work. Anyone else who wants clean it up, please feel free. Futuregshost (talk) 05:55, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"is based on an idea he had in his dressing room" Maybe it'd help to explain what that idea was. Presumably it was something simple like "Players can trap (lock out) other players if they do well, but if they then fail they lock themselves out" or something? I don't understand the unifying theme of the show, assuming there is one, from the current description. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.71.180.168 (talk) 17:35, 8 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fix the page, it doesn't show key contents. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:86F2:F800:F816:A581:8C11:1DF4 (talk) 17:26, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
